Actually, we teach medics, nurses, docs, anyone on the campus that needs ACLS. Between initial and recerts, they run about 200 classes a year (keep in mind that I work in a 2000+ bed institution that also owns the EMS system in 5 counties and has roughly 40,000 clinical employees - counting the outlying clinics and medical centers). EM residents account for roughly 10% of the instructors - some cards fellows teach too. When we teach, it is "all day" with a paid lunch hour so the minimum is $450 (6 hours, fist day initial class), the most is $525 (7 hours, recert). It's great - no liability, no medical licensure required (so we can start as interns), the program trained us as instructors, and you build your CV! The only "downside" is it really sucks to work overnight then teach all day (but I've done it 4 times this month! - An extra ~ $1500 after taxes!)
It is a little different then you have at Case, Mike.
As for true "moonlighting", we can do it as second years at system owned urgent care centers. No "outside" work is allowed.
